Could you try if repairing the game works ?

 

1. Close the game

2. Right-Click on the game in Origin

3. Hit Repair game.

Please describe the patch or change you made. I hadn't played my game in a while, so I think I must have updated a few patches at once.

I have tried a lot of different things to fix the issue.  I've deleted a lot of unnecessary files that regenerate when the game restarts, repaired my game, and cleared my origin cache and the issue still appears.

issue

★★★ Novice

I updated my game and I noticed that the thumbnails for bunkbeds and some of the the new afro textured hairs are broken.  The thumbnail for the bunk bed is a neon purple, and the one for the new hairs is checkered white and red with some question marks.  The items were initially broken and appeared like that in my game until I repaired it.  After I repaired my game, the items work, but the thumbnails are still broken.  I have tested to make sure that it's not a mod causing this issue.  I also deleted a lot of the unnecessary files that regenerate when the game starts, repaired my game, and cleared my origin cache, but I'm still having this issue.  Does anyone know what could be causing this?  Oddly, it's only the first thumbnail that's broken. If I check the other swatches, they look fine.

@Rowlena I merged your post with the master on this issue. I know you said you repaired the game but could you try that again ? It helped most people

If it doesn't help, there's some other suggestions on the first page.

Can't Edit in Create A Sim

★ Novice

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? 1.75.125.1030
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All except Bust the Dust
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Open Create A Sim
What happens when the bug occurs? When I open Create A Sim, all that appears is the shadow of a new Sim with no option to customize them at all, via story or not, and I can't open my options menu to quit.
What do you expect to see? The regular Create A Sim screen.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Not now. I've removed them.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Yes
Please describe the patch or change you made. Updated to the newest May 27th 2021 patch.

I removed all my custom content, and deleted the localthumbcache, as Google said I should. I even tried moving my Sims 4 folder in Documents to a back-up and letting the game generate a new folder, but that didn't work either. It was working fine until I updated to the new version.
